Imagine being born, and an Evaluator tearing you from you mother's arms, running dozens of genetic tests, all done to determine your desirability. The tests are based on brain capacity, body mold, facial structure, and family history. The higher your desirability, the more likely you are to be one of the few Favored. The Favored are a group of elites ranging in age anywhere from 14 to 32. These few are given their Marks of the Privileged the moment they are brought to the Gathering Facility, a plantation in South Dakota, where it is always warm and sunny, and only rains at desired times. The Favored are chosen to look good in front of the rest of the world. They follow every rule, every order their Evaluators give them, setting the perfect, carbon-copy example for the Unfavored. But seven teenagers are tired of listening to the demands. And hell hath no fury like an adolescent scorned.

Centuries after the Fall, the United States has been wiped away. The crumbling remains of the great American empire are home now only to savage, lawless tribes and packs of ravening Damned-the twisted children of the apocalypse. Most of those few who survived humanity's destruction spend their short lives in a violent struggle for survival. But some light still flickers in the darkness: the Blessed of Bountiful live in seclusion, relying on walls both physical and spiritual to protect them from the Desolation that their world has become. Among them are the Saints, those few men and women born with superhuman abilities that the Blessed see as gifts from God. The violent apostate tribes of the Northeast Kingdom have always been a danger, but up until recently its small size and the vigilance of its people have made Bountiful an unappealing target. As attacks on the community grow harsher and more frequent, however, even the steadfast Blessed are forced to start preparing for the worst. With her home's very existence threatened, seventeen year old Ever Oaks, a Saint with the power to heal, is forced to make a difficult choice, one that may come to define her people's future... Exile was a semi-finalist in Mark Lawrence's Great Self-Published Fantasy Blog-Off (#SPFBO). Fantasy Faction said it was "extremely cool," and Bookish Lifestyle called it "more than just a story, a journey and an experience." When I'm asked about it, I often describe it as "X-Men meets The Walking Dead." In addition to reading it here for free, you can buy Exile in e-book or paperback on Amazon.com.
